\nFrom here the Team would be travelling to China for an International Exposure Tour from August 25 to September 10. The squad would be advancing to Incheon for the Asian Games from China. The Incheon Games start from September this year.<\/p>\n

Talking to www.the-aiff.com<\/a>, Roy informed, \u201cstress will be given on fitness and match related practice.\u201d \u201cThe girls need to get back in shape first as some of them were not part of the Women\u2019s Nationals in Assam. They need to be fit first and we are working hard at it. Fitness is key to success,\u201d the Coach added.<\/p>\n

Roy was one of the chief scouts in the Women\u2019s Nationals held in the districts of Golaghat and Dibrugarh in Assam this May. \u201cThe list of probables has players who have done well in the Nationals. We are looking at a bigger pool and the very best will be making the final cut.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt present we are focusing on match related training sessions in the evening and all of it is with the ball. I am trying to inculcate a fluid 4-2-3-1 formation and the girls are taking time to adjust. I am glad that we have sufficient time to fine tune ourselves before it is show time.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Team which has won two SAFF titles till now will be aiming for a quarter final finish in the Asian Games in which they are taking part for the second time. \u201cA quarterfinal finish is the least we expect. Of course we want to go the distance, that\u2019s what everybody plays for but we are setting our goals. Quarterfinal is a must and we take it forward from there.\u201d<\/p>\n

The most recent tournament played by the Senior Team was the AFC Women\u2019s Asian Cup (Qualifiers) last year in Palestine. <\/p>\n
